TOPIC: The Blessed Generation (Mountain of Fire and Miracle Ministries Tuesday, 21 August 2018)

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 5:3-11

MEMORY VERSE: “Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”Matthew 5:10

The MESSAGE:

Sequel to the sin of Adam and Eve, man and the entire world came under severe curses. God, however made a way of escape for those desiring to obtain deliverance from the curses and their consequences. The only way of escape is for man to embrace Jesus in order to reconcile with God and come out of the curses. As many as believe Jesus receive the power to become sons of God. This automatically divides the world into two kinds of people: believers and unbelievers.

The blessed generation is the group of believers who are indwelt by God because of Christ. They are the people who realise their spiritual helplessness, show sorrow over sin, and who are meek, hungry for God’s righteousness, merciful, pure in heart, peacemakers, ridiculed, persecuted, or slandered because of Christ. You are blessed when you are humble and have a correct estimate of yourself rather than exhibit the world’s attitude of self-praise and self-assertion. You are blessed when you mourn over sin and despise it. When you see sin the way God sees it and seek to treat it the way God does, you are blessed. Those who cover sin or defend sin certainly have the wrong attitude. You are blessed when you have the right attitude toward the Lord. You are blessed when you put your trust in God, obtain His mercy and receive a clean heart and peace within. You are blessed when you share God’s mercy with others and keep your heart pure so that you might see God. You are blessed when you become a peacemaker in a troubled world and channel for God’s mercy, purity, and peace. Daniel, Hananiah (Shadrach), Mishael (Meshach) and Azariah (Abednego) became blessings to their generation when they refused to defile themselves with the King’s portion. They maintained their spiritual purity and received spiritual insight into the king’s dream, which earned them promotion in the land of captivity. Joseph became a blessing to His generation when he refused to defile himself with the offer of cheap but costly sex from Portiphar’s wife. The blessings of God always abound with those who walk in the way of the Lord. You can be part of this blessed generation if you depart from the way of the ungodly. May the grace of God locate you, in Jesus’ name.
